How Long Until a Score of 800?

I've been hovering around a score of 786 or so for about 6 months and it gradually increased to 796; how much longer to a score of 800? I have no loans and credit usage of less than 3%.

You may float around there for a while, but 796 is as good as 800, just saying Smiley Wink

But then again, you could be there next update.

 

I floated at certain ranges of 5 points (around 825-830) for almost a year.....

but then started apping again Smiley Happy

Not enough information above to give you a solid answer.  The answer could be 1 day or it could be 1 year depending on your profile data.  For starters, what are you age of accounts factors?  AoYA, AAoA and AoOA?  How many inquiries do you have that are less than 1 year old and how old are they?  What is your current aggregate CC utilization and do you have any individual cards that are at > 28.9% utilization?  If so, what is your highest utilization CC? 

 

The above information would help greatly.  Also you said you don't have any open loans currently.  There's a technique that can be implemented on a profile like your with no open loans that can add ~25 points or so, but whether or not you'd see all of those points would be influenced by the answers to the questions I already posed above.

Again, if you take the time to provide some more profile data as I suggested in my previous post you will get some solid responses on how quickly your scores may be able to increase.
